This richly illustrated sourcebook brings together a host of ideas to show how to make the most of garden floors. The first section explores the opportunities offered by hard landscaping materials in the context of flooring - including slate, concrete, decking and brickwork. The second section takes a detailed look at how flooring can be shown to its best advantage, using lighting, different levels, and contrasting colors and textures. This beautifully presented book shows the huge potential of groundwork for making inventive and stylish innovations.
